As part of the Spaces of Uncertainty Summer Academy in Stuttgart, during September 2016, a number of projected interventions were temporarily installed at the Württembergischer Kunstverein.
Using the disregarded corner of the huge Kunstverein gallery space, these projected light installations 'brushed' the surface of the walls, were present for short periods and then disappeared (when the projection devises were switched of) leaving only the memory of the event.
Walking past the corner - on the way to more significant parts of the gallery, the 'drawn' luminous lines shift, perceptually and clash slightly with our understanding of the edges of the room and how we expect them to appear when we move past them. There is a perspective 'animation' here activate entirely by the viewers visual expectation and their transition past the work.
The Summer Academy (part of the European Erasmus programme) brought together students and staff from 7 partner institutions :
The Hungarian University of Fine Arts (MKE)
Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design
Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow
Academy of Fine Arts and Design, Bratislava
Kingston University
University of Dundee
Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design &
Nottingham Trent University.
Teaching staff lead workshops with students from these European institutions and also developed aspects of their own research through conversation, consultation, collaboration and individual making and testing.

Installed as part of the Alternative Document Exhibition, Project Space Plus, Lincoln, UK, the piece incorporates three 35mm slide projectors, each projecting a single image of a rectangle (and bisecting line) onto the gallery wall.
Other work with the 'three planes' digital hologram has been undertaken in a variety of locations.
The Alternative Document exhibition runs alongside an international symposium of the same name, which brings together artists working in performance and the documentation of events/activities/moments.
A new work, 'Three - Nine', by Andrew Pepper, has been included in the exhibition, at the University of Lincoln's Project Space Plus, and brings together recent experimentation and exploration around the unsupported mark, there-ness and the peripheral view.
More details about 'Three - Nine' available here.
Curated by Dr. Angela Bartram, the exhibition includes key works in photography, holography, video, text, performance, audio, sculpture, neon and projection.
